'for certain reasons wasnt recorded' - no way were any insurance company informed of that accident.

Simple, he has flipped that while showing off to his mates uninsured on a dark country road. He got his other mate Knock Off Nigel to tow it back to his house where he's put it under a cover so no-one can see it.

for what; you cant prove anything; it could have been done in his driveway for all you know ( I know thats a sllim chance but even so, prove it either way)
Dodgiest thing will be if someone transfers all of this cars info onto another chassis or onto a nicked car to make it "legit"
